About Us

Born from a Passion for Complex Projects

Orlade, Part of Accenture, was founded around one simple yet powerful conviction: a passion for complex projects. Created in 2006 by three founders who spent their careers in major industrial environments, Orlade was built to close the gap between ambition and execution on the world's most demanding projects. Our formula — Op2 × pmO — expresses everything we stand for: the convergence of project performance expertise and operational programme management, applied across every stage of the project lifecycle. Today, with approximately 200 professionals across France and internationally, we combine our culture of execution and commitment with Accenture's global reach in technology, data, AI, and engineering.

Who we are

A Collective of Project Catalysts

We are a community of professionals who are passionate about major projects — people who genuinely enjoy working where tomorrow's world is being built. Consultants and freelancers, we all share an entrepreneurial DNA and a desire to win. Our teams bring more than 1,000 years of cumulative field experience, and we constantly reinforce this through our internal 'neural network' — a dynamic knowledge-sharing culture that keeps our expertise sharp and connected. We call our philosophy 'simplexity': the art of making even the most complex projects simple, visible, and achievable.

What we do

Driving Performance Across the Full Project Lifecycle

We specialise in the performance of complex industrial projects. Our offer is centred on operational solutions that generate real impact on the ground. We transform organisations to unlock the full performance of their project portfolios, boost individual projects at any stage of their lifecycle, provide seasoned PMO specialists and project managers, animate project teams operationally, and build lasting internal capability through our Orlade Academy training programmes. Whether a project is just starting, struggling, or scaling globally, our consultants are catalysts — masters of the art of doing and getting things done.

Our Purpose

The Metronome of Every Project That Matters

Our purpose is to be the metronome of every project with a positive impact — to organise, plan, and help build tomorrow's world. We exist to ensure that the most ambitious industrial, energy, rail, aerospace, and infrastructure projects succeed on time, on budget, and with measurable value. Bringing complex projects to life is our culture; giving them a positive impact is our challenge.

Our Values

Simplexity, Challenge, and Results

Three values define who we are: Simplexity — the capacity to make complex things simple and manageable. Challenge culture — we thrive on ambitious projects and relentless improvement. Results as success — making delivery a reality is our shared obsession. We live by #makeitsimple, #makeitvisible, #makeithappen.

Why working with us

Why Orlade Makes the Difference

Choosing Orlade means combining proven operational expertise, agile methodologies, and a genuine culture of execution — now amplified by Accenture's global capabilities in technology, data, and AI. Our consultants are field-trained specialists, immediately autonomous on any mission. We apply our proprietary i-QCDP® framework — covering quality, cost, deadlines, performance and environmental impact — to every project. With over 1,000 years of cumulative experience, recognised academic partnerships (CentraleSupélec Exed), and EcoVadis sustainability recognition, we are a partner that stays until your project succeeds.

Sustainability

Committed to Positive-Impact Projects

Orlade is committed to growing the share of positive-impact projects in its portfolio year on year, in line with international carbon neutrality targets for 2050. Internally, we act on sustainable practices — clean mobility, waste sorting, local consumption, and recycling. For clients, we offer methods and tools to reduce environmental footprint and support the energy and ecological transition. Our efforts are recognised with EcoVadis Silver and Gold certifications. We also maintain an academic and industrial partnership ecosystem oriented toward industrial sustainability.

Community & Impact

Building the World of Tomorrow, Together

Our community is made up of passionate project professionals who find meaning in working on projects that shape tomorrow's world. We actively collaborate with the university ecosystem — notably CentraleSupélec Exed — and engage with industrial ecosystems to develop the next generation of complex project talent. Our internal rituals and knowledge-sharing culture create a collective intelligence that benefits both our people and our clients.

Inclusion & Diversity

A Collective Open to All Generations

Diversity is part of our identity. With an average team age of 33 and a presence across five continents, Orlade brings together professionals from a wide range of backgrounds, cultures and career paths. Generation X, Y, Z — all are genuinely welcome, and the flat, non-hierarchical structure means every voice matters from day one. We have put in place an internal training plan accessible to all employees, an individual mentoring programme and a CSR charter with concrete commitments. We actively encourage international mobility, and 30% of our business is generated internationally. Our community includes both salaried consultants and trusted independent partners, united by a shared passion for extraordinary projects.
